It allows users to select weather stations on a map, choose a date range, and view temperature trends over time.\n\n![Screenshot](screenshot.png)\n\n## Features\n\n- Interactive map interface for selecting weather stations\n- Detailed station information display with available date ranges\n- Custom date range selection for data retrieval\n- Temperature trend visualization using line charts\n- Zoom functionality for detailed data exploration\n- Automatic date range adjustment based on data availability\n- Clear error messaging and data availability alerts\n- Backend API for efficient data retrieval from NOAA Climate Data Online (CDO)\n- Responsive design for various device sizes\n\n## Prerequisites\n\nBefore you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:\n\n- Python 3.7+\n- pip (Python package manager)\n- A NOAA Climate Data Online (CDO) API key\n\n## Installation\n\n1. Clone the repository:\n   ```\n   git clone https://github.com/esoltys/weather-patterns-visualizer.git\n   cd weather-patterns-visualizer\n   ```\n\n2. Create a virtual environment and activate it:\n   ```\n   python -m venv venv\n   source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows, use `venv\\Scripts\\activate`\n   ```\n\n3. Install the required packages:\n   ```\n   pip install -r requirements.txt\n   ```\n\n4. Set up your NOAA API key:\n   - Request a key from https://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/cdo-web/token\n   - Add your NOAA CDO API key to the `.env` file:\n     ```\n     NOAA_API_TOKEN=your_actual_api_token_here\n     ```\n\n## Usage\n\n1. Start the FastAPI server:\n   ```\n   cd backend\n   uvicorn main:app --reload\n   ```\n\n2. Open a web browser and navigate to `http://localhost:8000`\n\n3. Use the application:\n   - Select a weather station on the map\n   - Choose a start and end date\n   - Click \"Fetch Weather Data\" to view the temperature trend\n\n## Architecture\n\n```mermaid\ngraph TB\n    User((User))\n\n    subgraph \"Weather Visualizer Application\"\n        FrontendApp[\"Frontend Application\u003cbr/\u003e(JavaScript)\"]\n        BackendServer[\"Backend Server\u003cbr/\u003e(FastAPI)\"]\n        StaticFileServer[\"Static File Server\u003cbr/\u003e(FastAPI StaticFiles)\"]\n    end\n\n    subgraph \"External Services\"\n        NOAAAPI[\"NOAA Climate Data Online API\u003cbr/\u003e(External)\"]\n    end\n\n    User --\u003e FrontendApp\n    FrontendApp --\u003e BackendServer\n    FrontendApp --\u003e StaticFileServer\n    BackendServer --\u003e NOAAAPI\n\n    classDef frontend fill:#1168bd,stroke:#0b4884,color:#ffffff\n    classDef backend fill:#2694ab,stroke:#1a6d7d,color:#ffffff\n    classDef external fill:#999999,stroke:#666666,color:#ffffff\n\n    class FrontendApp frontend\n    class BackendServer,StaticFileServer backend\n    class NOAAAPI external\n\n```\n\n## License\n\nThis project is licensed under the MIT License - see the LICENSE file for details.\n\n## Acknowledgments\n\n- NOAA for providing the Climate Data Online API\n- ArcGIS for their JavaScript API\n- Chart.js for data visualization","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fesoltys%2Fweather_visualizer","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fesoltys%2Fweather_visualizer","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fesoltys%2Fweather_visualizer/lists"}
